The paper is devoted to an application of particle swarm optimizer and artificial immune system to optimization of elastic bodies under thermomechanical loading. The optimization problem is formulated as minimization of the volume, the maximal value of the equivalent stress, the maximal value of the temperature or maximization of the total dissipated heat flux with respect to specific dimensions of a structure. The direct problem is computed by means of the finite element method. Numerical examples for shape optimization are also included. © 2013 Springer-Verlag.
